Swell Summary
Surf along east facing shores will briefly ease into the weekend, then quickly ramp up and become rough early next week due to strong easterly trades expected as Hurricane Dora passes far south of the islands. The largest surf is expected over the eastern end of the state, where heights could exceed the advisory level late Monday through Tuesday night. A downward trend is expected through the second half of the week as a more typical trade wind pattern returns and seas lower. Surf along south facing shores will ease into the weekend with mainly a combo of background south and south-southwest swell expected. An upward trend is possible early next week as a short to medium period southeast swell arrives from Dora.
